Wild Boy

London, 1841

A boy covered in hair, raised as a monster, condemned to life in a travelling freak show. A boy with an extraordinary power of observation and detection. A boy accused of murder; on the run; hungry for the truth…

Behold the savage spectacle of Wild Boy! Ladies and Gentlemen, take your seats. The show is about to begin.
